Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Heavy Pedal

Heavy Pedal no longer offers Bicycles?
I thought their products were well regarded...especially the wheelsets.
Anyone know what happened?

I think it's funny that nobody really cared about the Zephyr until they were almost gone. Framesets have been sold out for a while but the Tempo wheelset is still available.

The best route to take is to contact them and ask.

The Zephyr- like modern Subarus was a design that took some time to love. Now they're gone. Now we're sad.....getting a Hyundai.

I'm pretty sure I read on an Instagram post, or maybe Facebook, that they are working on another frame now. Someone asked what happened to the frames on their web store, and they said they were working on something new.

Fun cars to drive.

I drive one of the best looking OG Subarus. Now if only it had the motor that should have came in it.

I dunno why the Zephyr took so long for people to dig. It's rad and I love mine (sure, I know it's a Colossi C-dale copy -- but that paint job is rad).
